The beautification grant awarded by Boston Main Streets to Chinatown Main Streets was specifically allocated for the cleanup and renewal of the neighborhood, with all funding directed towards Project Place. This initiative played a pivotal role in maintaining the cleanliness and appeal of Chinatown's streets and sidewalks.

Aligned with Chinatown Main Street's core objective of enhancing the neighborhood's aesthetics, the decision to engage Project Place was deliberate. Their inclusion in our efforts has allowed us to foster a community characterized by optimism and opportunity for homeless and low-income individuals. Through the provision of essential skills, education, and resources, Project Place empowers individuals to secure and maintain stable employment and housing.
